I think you two are arguing different things. Stuart claims that REQUIRING a database ENGINE for ANY use of gEDA is bad for the project. Steve claims that ALLOWING a database SCHEMA for MANY uses of gEDA is good for the project. I think you can both be happy with a gEDA that MAY use a database engine, but does not NEED one. Likewise, gEDA may ship with a "database" which is merely a collection of CSV text files - complex enough for simple uses yet without the dependency hell of requiring a relational database engine. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
